    I'm developing an FML style site just for college students. Please let me know what you think and what improvements you would make:

    I think the text is a bit too large. Personally, I'd prefer to see more than 1/2 stories above the fold (right when you load the page), especially since it might get too cluttered with pictures. Just my thoughts =S

    I think the contest pop up is a little unnecessary for now, perhaps once your site gets big. Also, it popped up again... ON the contest page itself.

    The design is very clean and easy on the eyes, and I love the logo/avatar design. That looks great.

    One thing I recommend is to get rid of the picture posts, or format them so that they are displayed behind a 'show more' jquery button. An example of what I mean can be seen here: http://bit.ly/pNkAQX
    otherwise, a post like that five image post will just dominate your webpage and well... it just doesn't look good.

    Very enjoyable. I'm not sure if your posts are genuine or not, but regardless their style is excellent and A LOT funnier than most of the stuff you see on FML nowadays.

    Like the logo, but I cannot associate it with college or the name. I would not use the S*** word in the heading.

    They're 100% true. :) That's the magic, lol. I clean up some of the submissions for readability right now.

    It's a custom character illustration. I thought about getting a college student or something but I kind of like the devil creature. I'll think about changing the title.

    theme's color combination is good.....put some kind of interaction method with users as it is for college students...they usually like interaction on different topics....
